Beyond the Hype: The Real Reasons Companies Want You on Their App

The answer, in short, is data. A lot of it. And access. A whole lot more of that too

What can a website on your #browser really get from you? Unless you manually upload your contact info, or there's a serious #security #vulnerability , a website's access to your phone's deeper functions is quite limited

Apps, on the other hand, are a different beast entirely

Supply-chain attacks on open source software are getting out of hand

It has been a busy week for supply-chain attacks targeting open source software available in public repositories, with successful #breaches of multiple #developer accounts that resulted in malicious packages being pushed to unsuspecting users.

#Hackers —hope to defect to #Russia ? Don’t #Google “ #defecting to Russia.”

To the casual observer, #cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses.

They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet.

They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, #encrypted #chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums.

#FederalReserve staff blamed #tariffs & #inflation for the high cost of the renovation of the central bank’s HQ Thurs & defended many of the upgrades as necessary for #security & maintaining the building’s historic architecture.

The explanation for the cost of the project came on a nearly 3-hr visit to the site before #Trump was set to visit to view the construction. The $2.5B project, which started in 2022, is being used by Trump to target the Fed chair, #JeromePowell.

@alpine Supposedly, business accounts are protected by “enterprise data protection”. The last bullet point in this header of their documentation states that one implication of this is what “your data isn’t used to train foundation models”.

As far as I can tell from the second link, “foundation models” are their largest models that their smaller, purpose-built models are based on. To me, this leaves a clear loophole to enable training any of their more niche models on even *enterprise data*.

Let me be clear. I know firsthand that this was enabled without warning for companies with NDAs working on critical infrastructure and hospitals with HIPAA laws to follow. As far as I can tell right now, this looks like a clear attempt at training their AIs on protected information.

And this doesn’t even cover the case of people signing into their work computers with personal Microsoft accounts, opening the door for company and patient data to be scraped with even fewer legal guardrails.
